Murder Mystery Synopsis:

Dr. Larry Doom, heir to the Doom estate and a renowned chemist, has led a life mired in misery, lies, and deceit. After receiving troubling news from his doctor that he wasn't as healthy as he believed, he reflected on all the evil deeds he had committed against those closest to him. In a fit of regret, he pleaded with his niece, Miss Crimson, the only one still in his good graces, to host a dinner at Doom Mansion so he has a chance to reconcile with those he had wronged.

The guests will undoubtedly arrive at the mansion in style, anticipating an intriguing and mysterious evening. Dr. Doom has planned a glamorous night filled with sumptuous food, engaging conversations, exciting party games, and his long-awaited and highly anticipated apologies to everyone on the guest list.

You’ve received an invitation from Dr. Doom, who wishes to make amends. You hope the night holds nothing more than apologies. Dr. Doom isn’t known for his honesty, so you worry this could be a setup full of secrets, lies, and danger. This is where your story begins.
